Frame component that supports driving and safety performance

With this component, bending and torsion while driving are suppressed to improve driving performance. Also, in the event of a collision, it protects the occupants and fuel tank from the collision impact.

Weight reduction achieved by thinner material

The use of ultra high-tensile material (980MPa grade) enables the use of sheet metal with less thickness. This leads to weight reduction, thereby contributing to improved fuel efficiency.

Collision-resistant Component on the Front and Rear

Bumper reinforcement is fixed to the front and rear of the vehicle to increase resistance to collision impacts. It absorbs the impact in the event of a collision to lessen damages to the occupants.

Weight Reduction by World Highest Level Strength Materials

Strength of 1800MPa grade allowed significant weight reduction compared to conventional components.

Component for Protecting Occupants from Collisions

This collision-resistant component is built inside the doors. The main role of this component is to absorb the impact in the event of a lateral collision to lessen damages to the occupants.

Strengthening and Weight Reduction by Hot Stamping

Increased strength (up to 1500MPa grade) enabled the use of thinner materials, thereby leading to weight reduction.
